Congratulations to graduate Anna Violet as a book that she has illustrated is due to be published very very soon. "How Anansi Got His Stories" will be published next month by Oxford University Press, Anansi is a familiar character from many African and Caribbean tales. The book is aimed at children and their parents to introduce them to different cultures, traditions and morals.

It was the turn of Chris Howker to create a installation for a design agency in Manchester, 'Music'. Chris painted directly onto glass - which is not an easy task.... especially at a large scale and reversed! Chris explains "I had to paint on the inside of the room rather than the outside so that it wasn't scratched easily".
